The Decline of Music

I was listening to a favorite duet of mine by Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand—masterfully redone by Lea Michele and Chris Colfer of Glee—and couldn’t help but reiterate some of the alluded to sentiments of my previous post.  It’s so…sad to me that those two women—with all their grace, poise and talent—are being replaced by the likes of Ke$ha, whose voice is so computerized, it’s disgusting.  Women like Garland and Streisand actually deserve the awards and acclaim they gained, while Ke$ha (I’m getting really sick of typing that stupid dollar sign) and others like her gain theirs by imitating actual originals like Madonna and posing in barely-there bikinis on their album covers.
